Ok that's just weird. But getting back to Snyder it's really not all about Cutler for me (i don't really understand why you wouldn't believe me there but ?). IMO his meddling makes him a lousy owner. And w/o someone of character Danny looks up to, Gibbs for instance, the poor guy just can't do it right. We can disagree whether Williams would have made a good HC here, but I don't think an honest person can make the argument Snyder acted w/ integrity. I mean the "allegation" from high up in the franchise that Williams disrespected Joe Gibbs was the most childish, absurd thing I've heard in professional sports...word. Sure Williams is an tough-minded, arrogant SOB who probably wanted more or less total control, but never once throughout his career have I heard or read where he threw anyone under the bus.

...the stuff mentioned about charity and the Taylor tragedy...well my God I can't imagine an owner acting any differently than Snyder did and charity is just a part of life (or it should be). I would bet my life's income I give a higher % of what I earn to charity than Snyder, in fact I bet the figures aren't even close, but I still know I'm more or less a lousy bloke. I mean if you're looking for a successful person to look up to in this regard Snyder seems like a terrible choice...Gates maybe, Buffet for sure. Not Snyder.
